 I sell these bags.

They are popular for the same reasons as you listed, 
but I tend to shy away from them.

Disclaimer - an honest salesman working here.

The Woods bags come with a poly/cotton liner. It sucks
up moisture and can stick to a warm body. So if you
"windmill" while sleeping - you will be in for a very
unpleasant surprise.

Also, the lightweight bags are VERY GENEROUSLY rated.
By no means are these bags worthy of their ratings. If
you shop along the lines of temp - you will freeze.

Note: these are not bad bags - I would refuse to sell
them if that was the case. I simply would like to
state that there are better bags out there.

When shopping for these bags it is important to note
that sometimes your pants might be sized a bit small
and you have to adjust accordingly. THE SAME IS TRUE
WITH THESE BAGS. The are not bad - but there is
better.


If you want me to get further into it, I have dozens
of customers who will gladly tell you of their
personal experiences with these bags.  

Let me know if I should go on. - BUYER BE AWARE!

Please note I will be IN NEW YORK CITY KAYAKING!!!!
yes! ND boy gets out. I will try to periodically check
my mail.

Later all, Phil
